> <i>The Zero and Zero 2 models should start coming back, Upton said, and buyers should start to see a "substantial recovery" of the 3, 3B+, and 4 models toward the end of this second quarter.</i><p>The zero2 is easily one of the most useful accessible affordable computing devices on the planet.<p>Hope we indeed see some RISC-V competition, but the integration & capabilities & ease of use of the pi0 2 is just so good. Having them available again will be great.
They said the same last fall and unfortunately it's still damn near impossible to buy a 4 without buying a "kit" of random crap that you don't need or paying 80% mark-up on Amazon. Hoping for the best, but remaining suspicious.
I recently needed to buy a raspberry for my hobby project and find one close to retail price via [1] which tracks availability across different online stores.<p>[1] <a href="https://rpilocator.com/" rel="nofollow">https://rpilocator.com/</a>
I would really like to see them move to USB-C for their next refresh of each of their products. They could even change the camera connector to USB which would open up some interesting opportunities.
